Users

Manages user accounts, Twitch token custody, access status, staff and delegation.

On this page

The Users service (app/db/users/) is the central authority for identity in ItsBagelBot.

Architecture

  • Ownership: Owns the Users MySQL schema containing Twitch IDs, preferences, sealed OAuth tokens and contact email, account statuses, promotional Premium grants, staff roles with an audit log, and dashboard delegations.
  • Status Tiers: Determines whether an account is free, paid, or vip, which dictates their access to premium features or routing lanes. paid can come from a Tebex subscription or from a giveaway grant; vip is permanent.
  • Events: Publishes data.users.changed (with a state revision) and data.users.deleted, and broadcasts cache invalidations. Feature services clean up their own data after a deletion.
  • RPC: Serves the dashboard (bagel.rpc.dashboard.*), admin account operations (bagel.rpc.admin.user.*), billing application (bagel.rpc.internal.billing.apply), giveaway eligibility and grants, delegation, and the secret-free projection (bagel.rpc.internal.projection.users.get).
  • Token Vault: Manages the sensitive Twitch OAuth tokens. It acts as an internal vault; other services (like Outgress) query the Users service securely over NATS RPC (bagel.rpc.internal.tokens.*, verbs get and save) to obtain access to perform actions on behalf of the user. Tokens and contact emails are encrypted at rest.

Inter-Service Auth

NATS authorization restricts access to the bagel.rpc.internal.tokens.* subjects. Only authorized services (Twitch Outgress and the Users service itself) can access these subjects, ensuring that plaintext tokens are heavily guarded within the cluster.
